Why do fighting games always have as few strength based characters as possible? There's always tons of speedy types or technical/combo types but only ever 2 or 3 characters based on strength.

I'm not asking for strength characters to make up the majority of the roster of this game or any other fighting game but it would be nice if there was at least a fair number compared to the other types.

Because it takes legit skill to be good with big men types. You know how many shitty Zangiefs there are out there as opposed to good ones. Compare that to Ryus or Akumas or any other character with more attack options. It's even worse in other games.

BTW, you should try out Tekken 6. Got a feeling you'd be pretty beastly with the Kings, Dragunov and Marduk.
